He was up on the perch but hesitated to come down until i put my hand in. I hope that hes not sick. And i dont want to take...

I currently have 8 lovebirds. In one of the cages I have 3 and there about 7 months old. Two of them have paired up leaving the youngest out. He gets picked on and it has been getting worse. It's mostly the oldest picking on him. I'm afraid that one day they will seriously hurt him. I don't know...

My lovebird chicks are 9 weeks old and aren't fully weaned. I have been giving them pellets and they eat that but still need the formula. They would much rather eat seeds then pellets but seeds aren't the healthiest for them as their main diet. Is there a way to wean them faster?! Should I give...

Hello, my lovebird has been more territorial and having nesting behavior. A few months ago she had 5 chicks and only 3 lived. And I am currently in the process of weaning them. I cannot have more than 5 lovebirds in my house so I would have to sell them. Should they be hand fed or should I leave...

Hello, I have 3 handfed lovebirds that are 7 weeks old. They are just now interested in eating regular food. I would sometimes put my hand in their cage and they would all fly on it and sit there. But sometimes they would chew on my fingers. What does this mean? Are they trying to bite or play...

Hi! So last Friday i took my 2 week old lovebird out of the nesting box to hand fed. Hand feeding them was difficult at first but i'm getting better. They are doing great! Yesterday both of the parents escaped from there cage and found the chicks. So I tied there cage doors so they couldn't open...

I recently noticed my lovebirds constantly scratching their head. One time they were on seperate perches (one perch on top of the other) and the bird on the top scratched his head, then the bird on the bottom started to scratch a lot too! Do you think they have mites? They have about 5 eggs in...

I have a pair of lovebirds and they are about 11 months old, they have been together since July 10 and they would argue once in a while and then groom each other and the male would feed the female. When they would fight it would last a minute or so. Then it started to seem more consistent with...

My 2 lovebirds have five eggs in their nesting box and they both escaped and are flying around in my backyard. Will they come back? If not what should I do with the eggs? Should I put them in an incubator or put them in another pair of lovebirds nesting box?

My pair of lovebirds laid an egg! I am not planning on hand feeding the chicks but I want to bring the chicks inside the house. The lovebirds' cage is outside and I prefer to keep the tamed lovebirds inside so they get used to people. The parents are not tamed and are more comfortable outside...

Hi, I am new to Backyard Chickens. And I do not know whats wrong with my chicken. I don't know the breed of my chicken. She is all white with a red comb and wattle. She's about four months old and over weight. She has been making weird noises like a rasping cluck. I'm not sure how long this...
